FOREWORD. 

AFTER  serving  with  great  distinction  throughout  the 
^  Civil  War,  Captain  John  Sanford  Barnes,  U.  S.  N., 
a  graduate  of  AnnapoHs  of  the  Class  of  '53,  resigned  the 
Service  and  took  up  the  business  career  in  which  he  was 
to  prove  himself  so  eminently  successful. 

In  the  spare  moments  of  a  very  active  life  he  began 
forming  the  collection  of  books,  manuscripts,  autograph 
letters,  prints  and  other  memorabilia  that  are  recounted 
in  this  catalogue.  At  first  he  merely  sought  a  recreation 
in  gathering  together  the  nucleus  of  this  library,  but  in 
his  later  years  the  extending  and  enlarging  of  it  became 
no  longer  a  pastime  but  a  life  work.  In  November,  191 1, 
death  interrupted  this  labor  of  over  forty  years  to  which 
Captain  Barnes  had  given  such  devoted  care  and  fore- 
thought. 

^  No  more  fitting  memorial  could  be  imagined  than 

'^    that  this  collection  should  be  kept  together  in  the  pos- 

"^    session  of  the  Naval  History  Society,  to  form,  again,  the 

nucleus   of   a    still    larger   and    more    important   library 

J   and  collection.       Captain  Barnes  was  the  Society's  first 

^   President  and  one  of  its  founders;  it  was  his  great  desire 

^   to  see  it  realize  its  aims  and  ambitions  and  attain  a  per- 

^  manent  position. 

Jin  presenting  to  the  Society  the  "Barnes  Memorial 
Library,"  his  eldest  son,  James  Barnes, — acting  in  com- 
plete accord  with  the  other  surviving  children  and  heirs 
of  Captain  Barnes — has  felt  that  he  was  but  carrying  out 
the  wish  that  lay  nearest  to  his  father's  heart.

This  American  "Battle  Abbey,"  published  on  the  semi-centennial  of  the 
Civil  War,  is,  without  question,  the  most  important  of  the  more  recent 
works  published  upon  the  subject.  It  presents  the  time-stained  photo- 
graphs, which  the  genius  of  Brady  made  possible,  and  reveals  the  vision 
of  the  war  in  all  its  reality.

under  the  direction  of  the  Secretary  of  War.  Washington  Govern- 
ment Printing  Office,   1880-1901,   128  volumes,  with  atlas  of  maps. 

This  monumental  work  contains  all  the  reports,  correspondence,  and  sta- 
tistics relating  to  the  military  operations,  battles,  sieges,  expeditions,  etc.,  to 
the  prisoners  of  war  and  state,  drafts,  reports  of  the  administrative 
bureaus  of  the  War  Departments  and  national  and  State  authorities,  both 
Union  and  Confederate.  Not  only  were  the  papers  on  file  in  the  Govern- 
ment archives  included,  but  long,  diligent  and  successful  search  was  made 
for  missing  records — particularly  Confederate — field  despatches,  private 
diaries  and  papers  of  responsible  officers.  The  whole  forms  the  original 
source  and  ultimate  authority  for  the  history  of  the  period — a  wonderful 
collection  of  historical  material,  full  of  personal  life  as  well  as  formal 
documentary  evidence.

Edition,  1635.  Illustrations  and  Maps.  4to.  Full  brown  morocco 
gilt,  edges  gilt,  fine  copy. 

The  folding  map  in  this  copy  is  a  facsimile  of  the  excessively  rare  and 
original.  Luke  Foxe  was  a  native  of  Hull,  born  there  in  1586,  and  dying  at 
Whitby  in  1635,  in  lamentable  neglect,  after  an  arduous  life  as  a  sailor 
and  Arctic  Explorer.  In  1629,  acting  under  the  patronage  of  Henry  Briggs, 
Professor  of  Geometry  at  Oxford,  and  Sir  J.  Brooke,  he  petitioned  the 
King  for  "a  small  supply  of  money  towards  a  discovery  of  a  passage  by 
the  North-West  to  the  South  Sea,"  and  in  response  a  pinnance  of  70  tons 
burden  was  placed  at  his  disposal,  in  which  he  set  forth  in  the  following 
year.  The  results  of  the  voyage,  which  lasted  about  six  months,  are 
described  in  the  foregoing  work,  which  must  always  be  regarded  as  one 
of  the  most  interesting  and  important  contributions  to  the  history  of  Arctic 
exploration.

A  Navy  would  be  maintained  but  to  an  almost  useless  purpose  which 
taking  the  seamen  kept  the  merchantmen  idle  in  Port,  and  trading  vessels 
would  be  as  unprofitably  employed,  if  they  took  all  those  seamen  whose 
skill  and  courage  on  board  ships  of  war,  would  give  them  protection  and 
secure  their  safety.  We  have  enough  for  both  purposes,  and  the  cultivat-

To  Which  is  added  an  Appendix  containing  a  New  Set  of  Logarithmic 
Solar  Tables,  calculated  and  constructed  for  determining  the  Latitude 
at  Sea,  By  Taking  Two  Altitudes  either  in  the  Forenoon  or  After- 
noon, with  the  Intermediate  Time,  by  a  common  Watch ;  and  that 
with  Ease  and  Accuracy,  independent  of  the  Sun's  meridional  Alti- 
tude. This  most  excellent  and  useful  Performance,  doth  not  only 
produce  the  true  Latitude  at  any  Time  between  Nine  o'Clock  in  the 
Morning,  and  Three  in  the  Afternoon ;  but  also  gives  the  true  Time  of 
the  Day,  when  the  greatest  Altitude  was  taken,  to  twenty  Seconds  by 
the  Tables;  and  if  a  greater  Degree  of  Accuracy  is  required,  the 
same  may  be  done  by  taking  proportional  Parts.  Whence  the  Sun's 
Azimuth  may  be  determined  by  one  single  Proportion.  To  Which  Is 
Added  A  Complete  Theory,  Illustrating  the  Rationale  of  this  most 
useful  Discovery.  The  Fifth  Edition,  with  the  tables  enlarged.

tations  and  memoranda  of  payments  and  receipts  for  the  most  part  in 

the  handwriting  of  Richard  Dale.     Upon  the  parchment  cover  there  is 

much  scribbling,   "R,  D."  Jan.  26,    1779."  "Richard   Dale's   Book," 

"R.  D.,"  "September  the  3rd,  1780."  "This  book  belongs  to  Lieutenant 

Henry  Lunt,  Lieutenant  of  the  Ship  of  War  B " 

The  "Journalls"  are  evidently  kept  in  the  handwriting  of  Nathaniel 
Fanning,  Midshipman  on  board  of  the  "Bon  Homme  Richard,"  "Alli- 
ance" and  "Ariel"  and,  by  his  own  accounts,  clerk  to  Paul  Jones,  and 
by  his  own  signature  in  the  list  of  the  officers  and  crew  of  the  "Bon  Homme 
Richard,"  which  is  identical  with  the  writing  of  the  Log  Books.  A  close 
study  of  this  relic  of  Paul  Jones  would  appear  to  show  that  the  book  was 
originally  in  possession  of  Lieutenant  Dale;  that  Lieutenant  Dale  used  it 
to  enter  the  names  and  qualities  of  the  officers  and  men  in  the  "Bon  Homme 
Richard";  that  it  passed  to  the  "Serapis"  before  the  "Bonne  Homme 
Richard"  sank,  and  as  the  only  available  book,  the  "Journall"  of  the 
"Serapis"  was  commenced  in  it,  under  Dale's  direction,  and  continued 
from  the  "Serapis"  to  the  "Alliance"  and  "Ariel,"  and  retained  by  Dale 
who  used  it  for  his  journal  in  the  "Queen  of  France,"  kept  it  amongst  his 
papers,  and  finally  it  found  its  way  through  his  descendants  to  Mr.  S.  L.  M.

"A  Navy  would  be  maintained,  but  to  an  almost  useless  purpose,  which 
taking  the  seamen  kept  the  merchant  men  idle  in  port,  and  trading  ves- 
sels would  be  as  unpopular  employed,  if  they  took  all  those  seamen  whose 
skill  and  courage  on  board  ships  of  War  would  give  them  protection  and 
secure  their  safety.  We  have  enough  for  both  purposes,  and  the  culti- 
vating hand  of  attention  alone  is  wanting  to  multiply  their  number. 
Money  may  buy  all  Naval  stores  except  the  Marines,  but  unless  a  supply 
of  them  is  preserved,  no  wealth  will  be  able  to  procure  them."

This  work,  a  monument  of  patient  research,  covers  the  entire  history  of 
the  American  Navy  from  the  beginnings  to  the  present  time.  Mr.  Neeser 
has  searched  all  the  extant  records,  whether  manuscript  or  printed,  both 
in  this  country  and  abroad,  including  the  records  of  the  Navy  Department, 
to  which  he  has  had  access.  In  compact  form  he  has  recorded  every 
ascertainable  fact  regarding  the  Navy  and  its  activities — the  personnel  of 
every  Expedition  and  fight,  the  number  of  ships,  men  and  guns,  the  dura- 
tion and  results  of  engagements,  etc.  A  complete  bibliography,  comprising 
over  nine  thousand  titles,  makes  the  work  indispensable  to  every  student 
of  the  events  in  which  the  Navy  has  played  a  part.
